You will be creating a comic strip with at least two characters who will discuss one issue.

1.Answer all questions before you begin working on the Pixton comic strip.

You will conduct research on one topic from the following list: bullying, gangs, heroin addiction, teen pregnancy, or smoking.


While researching your topic, find concrete answers to the following questions:
  • How many people in the United States have been affected or involved in this? Be specific and find the actual number or percentage.
  • What are the possible outcomes from being involved in this behavior? For example, does this behavior result in death, sickness, poverty, incarceration?
  • Why do people do this behavior?


Answer all the questions on a Google Doc and share the document with Mrs. Wellborn at my cps email (see the board).

You will now go to the website: Pixton.com

2. Create a 6+ panel comic strip. Your comic strip must include a minimum of two characters.

3. Have your characters discuss the topic you researched. All the factual information you learned in your research must appear in the comic strip.

4. You must change the backgrounds at least two times.
5. All text bubbles must be in the correct positions and contain correct grammar.
